    (1) Prepare the April income statement using variable costing.

    + Revenues = 12000*29 = 348000

    Variable expenses

    - production = 12000*9 = 84000

    - selling & admin = 12000*3 = 36000

    = Contribution margin 228000

    Fixed Expenses

    - Production 91000

    - selling and administrative 9000

    = Net profit or loss 128000

    (2) Determine the product cost per unit

    Manufacturing Cost/unit

    variable cost = $9

    Manufacturing Overheads = 91,000/13000 = $7

    Total product cost per unit = $9+$7 = $16
